Blue ribbon fudge
Ingredients
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa powder
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/3 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1/3 cup chopped pecans [optional]
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 3/4 – 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Method
Butter a loaf pan, 9 x 5 x 3, or 8 x 8 inch square pan. A square pan will make thinner fudge that is easier to cut while the loaf pan will make thicker, harder to cut fudge.
Combine sugar, cocoa, butter, milk, and corn syrup in a heavy-bottomed 2 quart pan. Heat to boiling over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently. Boil and stir for one minute. Remove from heat and let cool without stirring until the bottom of the pan is lukewarm– 45 minutes to 1 hour. Make sure you don’t forget about it, because once it is totally cold, it becomes too hard to mix the powdered sugar in.
Stir in nuts and vanilla. Start with 1 3/4 cups powdered sugar. Sift the powdered sugar into the pan, stirring to blend. As the dough stiffens, it is easiest to continue mixing using your hands, adding more powdered sugar if necessary, or turning the dough out onto the table and kneading it like bread dough. When the fudge is the consistency of smooth bread dough and there aren’t any little bits of powdered sugar to be seen, press it into the greased pan.
Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour, then cut into 1 inch squares.
